I have crazy daffodils growing?

is it right to have crazy shaped daffodils growing in my garden

I have crazy daffodils growing?
Crazy shaped? Like how? I mean, sure it's right if they are meant to be that way. There are some pretty different daffies out there. Or you just may be daffy yourself. Sometimes flowers will turn out strange if the bulbs are being eating by bugs or if you did not clip the flowers off after blooming last season. The bulbs put all the energy into trying to make seeds rather than storing energy for flowers the next season. Seriously, if it's different, I'll put it in my garden on purpose. Like the green daffodils. Those are cool. And the summer blooming double narcissus, which are in the daffodil family. Actually, daffodils are in the narcissus family, but who cares?

Reply:They are a bulbed perennial which means they mulitply every year. If you want to cut them back just dig up deep enough to move the little white bulbs that will be everywhere. Dead or alive they will be there.



Put some in a pot and give them to your mother or neighbor. They move well. Also they grow towards the sun and close at night, that is why they change directions frequently.

Reply:There are some plants in my garden that have a tall orange stem, about the height of a man, and what I can only describe as "leg" shaped roots.



The funny thing is that yesterday they were on the right side, now they are on the left, much nearer the back door than ther were yesterday.



And I occasionally hear this strange knocking noise.



And you're worried about your daffs!
Reply:ooooh be wary of crazy daffodils! they start corrupting all the other flowers!
Reply:Try a good fertilizer. Sounds like they may be missing something in their little bulb diets. Or dig them up and plant fresh bulbs. If they are crazy looking I'd keep them, though. Not everyone has uniquely shaped flowers!
Reply:Daffodils usually show a couple of inches growth now-just poking through the soil.One possible cause of mis-shapen growth is spray drifting from weedkiller,if used nearby.

Another reason might be a virus affecting the bulbs,or if they've been in the same spot for a long time,the clump should be lifted in the spring and split into seperate bulbs.
Reply:i wandered lonely as a cloud, that floats on high o'er vale and hill .. when all at once i saw a shrowd! A host of golden daffodils. Beside the lake beneath the trees, fluttering and dancing in the breeze!



No i don't really think that's normal.
